[2025 Istanbul Attraction] Travel Guide for The Walls of Istanbul (Updated May)

My 8-day trip to Istanbul was amazing! I explored stunning places like the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, and the Grand Bazaar. Walking along the Bosphorus and trying delicious Turkish food—like kebabs and baklava—was unforgettable. I also took a ferry to the Asian side and enjoyed the vibrant culture. The city’s mix of history and modern life made every day special. I’d love to go back someday.

From now on, all the foods I will introduce are famous in Turkey♫ Let's start with the first one!! 📍Location: Hafız Mustafa 1864 Pera🍰 Kuloğlu, İstiklal Cd. No:121, 34433 Beyoğlu/İstanbul, Türkiye 4.8 stars with 20,000 reviews⭐️ I had rice pudding. It was sweet, but with a gentle sweetness that made it easy to eat, but the portion was quite large! Now it's all one color! My companion had rice pudding like chocolate cake and something boiled 🍫 This was a bit chocolatey and heavy, but if you like chocolate, you should definitely order it ⭐️ For drinks, I had chai 🍵 The chai came with lokum as expected ♫ #Hafız_Mustafa_1864_Pera 📍 Location: Köfteci Ramiz 🥩 Himaye-İ, Bab-ı Ali Cad, Alemdar, Etfal Hastanesi Sokağı No:17, 34110 Fatih/İstanbul, Türkiye I had kofte 🥩 I was hungry, so it was even more delicious! 🤩 But the meat itself was quite flavorful! But I ate it all up ☺️ Ah, I want to eat it now. . This is something you should eat when you're hungry! 📍Location: Karaköy Çorba Evi🍲 Kemankeş Karamustafa Paşa, Mumhane Cd. No:35, 34425 Beyoğlu/İstanbul, Türkiye Turkey is also famous for its soups! 🍲I ordered Kelle Paça (a rich soup made with stewed lamb's feet) and Corbalar (a classic! Lentil soup. Perfect for breakfast). When I sat down at the table, bread and pickles were placed on the table. There is no extra charge for any of them, so please try them with bread and soup♫🍞🍲 📍Location: Karaköy Güllüoğlu - Nadir Güllü🍰 Kemankeş Karamustafa Paşa, Kemankeş Cd. No:67, 34425 Beyoğlu/İstanbul, Türkiye Here you can eat the classic Turkish sweets🤤 Just point to what you want and say, "This, this, this," and they'll serve it on your plate. I was happy to be able to eat a Turkish suit with a delicate look. But the taste, or rather the base, seems to be the same! But it's delicious! If you don't like sweet things, it's strictly forbidden to eat too many🙅♀️Water was also self-service! 📍Location: MERCAN Yasa Cd. 46, 34710 Kadikoy Istanbul, Türkiye This is a street shop. I wanted to try the Midiye Dolmas 🦪 mussels with pilaf inside! But it was cold and I wondered if it would be more delicious if I warmed it up 😛 I ate it like a snack! 📍Location: Fazil Bey's Turkish Coffee Fazıl Bey'in Türk Kahvesi☕️ Caferağa, Serasker Cd. 1/A, 34710 Kadıköy/İstanbul, Türkiye I was looking for sand coffee but it was hard to find, so I went to a cafe with good reviews ☕️ Turkish delight and Turkish coffee! It wasn't sand, but the atmosphere was good ♫ After you finish drinking, you can do your own coffee fortune telling ☺️ (From here on, I will introduce sand coffee, so please read it ♫) 📍 Location: A shop that was on the seaside after getting off the Karakoy boat pier. 　 Mackerel sandwich 🐟 I heard that mackerel sandwiches are very delicious, but I chose a random shop and it was delicious, but it wasn't amazing! I want to get revenge 😭 For mackerel sandwiches, you should definitely go to a good place after reading everyone's reviews! After eating it, your mouth will stink lol 📍 Location: A street stall around Hamidiye Cd. 1A, 34112 Fatih Istanbul, Türkiye. It was near the tram station. I ate this pretzel 🥨-like thing. This is a guess, but it's dipped in syrup and fried! Anyway, it's sweet!! Sweet!! Every time I eat it, syrup or oil or maybe both overflows into my mouth. Maybe half the amount is enough♫ 📍Location: Kebab shop on the way to Taksim Square I wandered around looking for cheap kebabs. Then I got some takeaway and ate it at the hotel! 🥙 The light blue one is a drink made from yogurt and salt! It seems to be famous! Indeed, if you drink it by itself, it tastes like salty yogurt. But if you eat it while eating kebabs, it tastes like regular yogurt! Interesting🥤 📍Location: Burger shop near Taksim Square This place was very popular! I think it's famous. The wet burger is cheap and delicious. Apparently it's stewed in tomato sauce. I want to eat a bigger size!! 📍Location: Cheese pie I ate at the bazaar This one came in a variety of flavors. Beef and all! You should eat it while it's warm! When it gets cold 🙅 📍Location: Öz Şampiyon Kokoreç🥖 Mercan, Uzun Çarşı Cd. No:15, 34116 Fatih/İstanbul, Türkiye Kokoreç🥖 is a sandwich made from sheep intestines. It seems to have a strong flavor, but I was able to eat it all in one go! It was delicious. But I think I bit into a strange place, so it was really spicy 🔥 📍Location: Public Restaurant🍴 The thing you should definitely visit in Turkey is a public restaurant. A public restaurant is called a lokanta! It's cheap, the portions are big, and they have desserts too!! I didn't know what it was, but it was delicious when I ate it with rice and meat! The white one is a mixture of macaroni and yogurt. It really tasted like a mixture lol 📍Location: Coffee No.4☕️ Alemdar, Molla Fenari Sk. No:4, 34110 Fatih/İstanbul, Türkiye I was looking forward to the sand coffee! ! ! ! ! By the way, there is no sand coffee at the Grand Bazaar! ! ! I was satisfied to be able to boil it in sand and drink coffee♫ When I went to Istanbul, I thought that the restaurants in the old town are completely expensive. I stayed at a hotel in the old town, and a kebab meal at a nearby restaurant was about 3,000 yen! ️ In comparison, the new town was very cheap! ! ! ! The hotel might be good for the new town♪ After all, you can get to the ferry terminal quickly by tram♫ But I think the old town is quieter and safer♫♫🇹🇷 There were lots of cute cats🐈🐈⬛ too! #Turkey #Istanbul #KarakoyDistrict #HokkaidoTrip #istanbul #trip #EuropeTrip #AsiaTrip #0YenTripFebruary2025

The Walls of Istanbul, also known as the Theodosian Walls, are a core area of the World Heritage Site in Istanbul, Turkey. There are many legends about these walls. Initially, I just wanted to check them out, but seeing them in person made me realize that my imagination was limited. It's hard to imagine that such a magnificent all-brick and stone wall could be built in the 5th century, 1600 years ago. The existing walls were built in 408 AD by Roman Emperor Theodosius II. The former Roman walls were divided into inner and outer walls, with the outer wall reaching a height of 8.5 meters and the inner wall reaching 12 meters. Although the existing walls are not complete, they are still very impressive. It's no wonder that even after the fall of Constantinople, the walls remained largely intact. Address: Derviş Ali, Hoca Çakır Cd. No:1, 34087 Fatih/İstanbul, Turkey Transportation: Take the metro to the Topkapi station.
